Hi all.

For the last 2 months or so my Inspiron 9400 laptop seems to die after about 10-15mins on battery power even though it says it's fully charged.
I looked up in the Dell manual and it says if you hold down the battery status button on the battery it will indicate how good the health of the battery is.
When I do this it all lights up, indicating the battery is in good health, but it clearly isn't!

Is there anything else that could be causing the battery to have such short life or is it really dying?

I just want to know before I go and buy a new battery.
